Transportation accounts for about a quarter of the Nordic countries’ national greenhouse gas emissions. Transforming the entire transport sector is a massive task. In 2020 the Ministers of Nordic Cooperation inititated the Green Transition of the Transport Sector Programme with the aim of enhancing the cross-sectoral collaboration in the Nordic transport sector.
